They seem to be fixed on the instance he currently posts with, according 
to a few posts I just saw and replied to (one of them).

I imagine the learning curve for some, just coming around now, with no 
previous experience, and on a 30+ year old hobby that doesn't draw much 
attention any more is probably more difficult than any one of us that 
have been doing it for years can assume. A little patience can go a long 
way, I suppose.

I feel like he may have jumped into the deep end, by starting multiple 
tasks/fires all at the same time without any prior knowledge (even 
including the operating system he chose to use). Only now is beginning 
to focus on one thing at a time and get himself out of the mess he made 
for himself. He'll figure it all out eventually.

Regards,
Nick
